So every game is equal and there is never an ounce of bias on the behalf of the officials?

I think all teams playing at home gets a little more cooking than the away team.  But I definitely don't believe a certain specific team gets bias because of what city they play in.

It should be a good game, it would be even better with both teams 100% healthy but it is what it is. We still have our pass rushers and they are going to have to fight through the holds and put Dak on his ass. 

Well every offensive line holds, so it is what it is but the Eagles showed that Dallas is vulnerable up the middle with a strong pass rush.  Dallas is still missing their starting guard so the Panthers have to exploit that from the first defensive possession.

I don't think teams specifically get biased calls.  I do think certain plays get calls others don't.  I think that is where ref bias really shows itself the most.    I don't consider crews that call certain things heavier than others bias.  You see that a lot too.  But that is part of coaching, knowing what crew is calling your game and their tendency....and you should know that and play to it.

***Cowboys are 26-0 when they run more than they throw.***

***Zeke and Pollard both finished with over 5 yards per carry.***

Our defense has to stay on top of the run. If not, we will lose.

Panthers have the #1 rushing defense in the league currently.

Dallas excelling on Run-Block Win Rate. Will be a stiff challenge for our rushing defense. Really may be THE key factor in the game.

Shutting down the Dallas run game would give incredible legitimacy to the Panthers D.

 Now I definitely agree that certain players get more bias than others.  A rookie or average player gets flagged faster than a pro bowler.

AGREED, as Dallas is 4th in rushing behind BAL, CLE, & TEN.

What do politics have to do with this discussion about a solid Cowboys team going against a very very good Panthers team???  Stick to the topic. 

If anyone on here posted under the name Fug Hidinbiden, would you get triggered?

If you think so, gtf outtahere.

Why don't you stick to Politics and go back to posting at CNN or FoxNews or whatever hole you crawled out of?

All you're doing here is trolling and you're not welcome.

    • Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.
    • If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?
    • Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
